SATURDAY: Tom Nickel is celebrating his birthday -- with a night off. Instead of tending bar at O'Brien's Pub or West Coast BBQ, he'll be relaxing at another pub, Eleven. Some beer will be involved, but the birthday boy is looking forward to the performance by Have a Cigar, a Pink Floyd tribute band, from 4 to 8 p.m. Cover charge: $5.

SUNDAY: I'm looking at Toronado San Diego's web site -- and the tap list was last updated on July 18. Click "bottles" and you see "list updated soon." "Coming up" mentions a great event featuring multiple versions of Russian River's Consecration -- but no mention as to when this was (or will be). I'm confused -- but so be it. Like its San Francisco namesake, this place is always pouring something interesting, hard-to-find or just plain awesome.
